SAN DIEGO -- The San Diego Chargers will start campaigning for the passage of the team’s plan for a new NFL stadium and convention center expansion by the end of this month.
Unveiled two weeks ago, the $1.8 billion proposal faces an uphill climb to get approved by voters if it makes it on the ballot in November.
However, Fred Maas, stadium adviser for the Chargers, believes the team crafted a fair deal that potentially solves several issues for the city, including a stadium that can be used for more than 10 football dates a year, a convention center space and the possibility for a football-only facility and expansion of San Diego State University at the Mission Valley site that houses Qualcomm Stadium.
